I really like the color combo in this balloon and waited to catch this guy walking in front of the lighter portion so he would be silhouetted against it. I decreased the saturation a little so it was softened some and sharpened and cropped it a bit. Love the turn out! f5.6, 1/60, ISO-1600, 48mm.

This is my favorite of the two. Nicely captured #1479708Dennis Gay August 10, 2012
G'day WENDY!This one really does it for me. I like the drama, the gorgeous light caught nby your great exposure, the silhouetted man, the warm colours, the looming, almost menacing shadow shapes of the background balloons and that wonderfully lit group at the working end of the balloon, all nicely placed in a tight but not too tight composition. A favourite for me.
